BJP & Corruption

Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 21: The JKPCC chief Prof Saif-ud-Din Soz wants the Assembly speaker to disqualify the suspended BJP MLAs so that fresh elections are held in the constituencies to be vacated by them. Poor BJP MLAs: They allegedly voted for the Congress party and its ally NC and yet such a negative attitude towards them. The people certainly want stringent action against those who violated people's mandate and voted for parties against which they contested election and won, but they do not appreciate the kind of attitude the Congress has adopted towards them. They are of the view that it was not only the BJP MLAs who subverted the people's mandate or indulged in political debauchery for pecuniary or other gains, but it was the Congress and the NC which induced these MLAs to do what they did and, hence, action also needed to be taken against these parties. They appear to be correct.
The people in Jammu by and large have also refused to appreciate the stand of the JKPCC chief on the NC and on the alleged involvement of certain Congress ministers in corruption, as also his stand on the way the issue of Peerzada Mohammad Sayeed was handled both by the Chief Minister and the Congress high command.
What has disturbed the people all the more is the fact that Peerzada was divested of the education portfolio on the ground that he allegedly helped his foster son to pass the matriculation examination after undermining the very sanctity of examination system and that he was allowed to continue as minister holding his other portfolio. "This is a mockery of the cabinet system of government," they opine, adding that they had expected him to take a form stand on the issue like the stand he took on the AFSPA last October and November. "They can tolerate and swallow everything but they cannot appreciate the support, even indirect, of Prof Soz to the Chief Minister, as also to the tainted ministers," they say.
The truth is that they want the JKPCC chief to take on the Chief Minister and NC believing "their policies are not in the best interest of the state in general and Jammu region in particular, as well as the country as a whole". They have not forgotten the "boldness" with which he contested the Chief Minister's stand on the AFSPA and they want him to "assert the authority of his party so that the NC is shown its rightful place and the menace of corruption is eradicated".
